We had a great late lunch here! My daughter wanted to come for the chicken Caesar sandwich and I was interested in the dumplings. I decided on the pork dumplings and they were fantastic. I wish they offered a dumpling sampler or pick two option! The slaw and pickled vegetables were also very good. The amount of food was a good amount for a meal without being too much. 17 for a sandwich seemed high, but the size of it made up for it. Easily two meals for an average to light eater. They also have a small beer and wine menu that is well priced for the area. We enjoyed the outdoor patio.

Casual atmosphere with order on your own at the counter kiosk and seat yourself. I ordered to go and so didn't experience the dine-in experience. Friendly staff. I ordered the chicken and mushroom but felt like there's was hardly any mushroom in the dumplings. The garlic aioli chili oil sauce was good and flavorful. I didn't try my vegetarian rice bowl yet but it looks great! Pricing was reasonable. Glad I was close enough to give it a try since I've heard so many good things.

Such a great place. We enjoyed the pop ups back in the day but the restaurant is really special. Everything we had was excellent. Check out any collab dumplings they do and the rice bowls are awesome as well. The location is easy to get to and parking is a huge bonus! Run don’t walk!

OMG delicious, everything!! For me the stand outs were the pork burrito, scallion chips and cumin fries. Dumplings were delicious too, it’s just the flavors from other items were so unique worked beautifully together. Obsessed with the pickled celery as well! Incredibly fast service and super cute and comfortable atmosphere.

Really like this place a lot. The latest limited item was an amazing chicken caesar on focaccia. The caesar was very obviously made in-house and the chicken was tender with great crunch. The focaccia was perfect, reminded me of Marty's deli (big compliment). The only real drawbacks are the expense and fluxuating menu. This place can set you back a lot of money if you are hungry and want to order multiple items. Come with friends and share plates. My other quibble is the limited menu. I'm not sure if they are experimenting, but it's kind of a bummer to find an amazing menu item, and then know that it's no longer available. So put a chicken sandwich on the menu and have an under $20 lunch combo with dumplings/fries as a side option (w/ a drink), problem solved.

There's nothing dumpy about this dumpling joint! Stopped in for lunch and had the chicken and mushroom dumplings and their Chinese sausage dumpling - both *chef's kiss* We also had the black sesame golden clouds, which were okay, but definitely could have used more sesame. (We may just really like sesame flavor, too.) The star of the show, however, were the Scallion chips with Szechuan cream cheese dip. These are worth going here *just* to have them. Perfectly crisped pita-style chips and just a hint of heat in the cream cheese, make this an umi-yummy, err, umami taste explosion! We will definitely be back.

Featuring one red braised pork burrito with Chinese slaw, a (now mainstay) breakfast burrito with Chinese sausage (make sure to sauce these up!), and some classic QQ pork dumplings, part crispy part steamy. Everything was seasoned and cooked well, but we’re sure the sauce adds even more to the show- a revisit will be made. We stopped by here in search of some sun, some food, and some escape from our semi-broken AC. Safe to say this was a roaring success.

If you like dumplings (samome say pot stickers), this is a fantastic place. Friendly staff, cool atmosphere, and good food. The service is fast. Paired down menu so you can get to what is good. I will go back.

The food was amazing everything was good except for the atmosphere it was a little much but it it is the best feeling when you walk into a small dumpling shop that has been running for over 50 years that has such simple food yet it is so good sadly this restaurant did not have that.but the serves was good

Saturday Dumpling Co is so hot right now! This cute little eatery in NE Minneapolis was packed for lunch when we went, and for good reason. The dumplings here are delicious! I really appreciate the dumpling flavors are all really unique for Minneapolis; it's hard to find anything that tastes like this at other restaurants that sell dumplings in the area. I especially appreciate the sauces; all of the ones we tried were really good, and reminded me of time I've spent in Xi'an and Chengdu. There's also a collab sauce with Diane's (which might be the best one here). The dumplings themselves are great too; the wrapping is perfect, and the filling is also quite yummy. Also, be sure to get the cumin fries; cumin is one of my favorite flavors, and these really hit the spot. I also have to really hand it to the staff; both of the people we had interactions with went out of their way to answer questions and just provide great customer service in general. I did almost take off a star for two reasons: the first is that I really think they should incorporate "DF" (Dairy-Free) symbology in their menu, especially because they already have soy-free, gluten-free, sesame-free, vegetarian, and vegan on there. There's a lot of us out here with issues with dairy, so hopefully they add that in. That said, about half their menu is dairy-free. Secondly, I do think the portion sizes could be a bit bigger (and maybe the prices are a touch high for the current sizes). We each had a dumpling plate, and also shared a cumin fries, and it wasn't quite enough food. We didn't want to order a whole other plate of dumplings, so it's too bad they don't have an 8-dumpling option, which I think would be a much better size. Still, even with the two critiques, this place deserves five-stars, especially because of the unique flavors and the awesome staff!

Finally got the chance to check out Saturday Dumping. Went on Sunday a bit after lunch rush. It was consistently busy but we were able to find a seat and food came out pretty quick. They had 2 kiosk as you walk in the door to order food and/or merch and frozen dumplings as well. We ended up ordering: 1 Chicken & Mushroom Dumplings (contains soy) $14.00 1 oz. Garlic Chili Aioli (V, GF, Spicy) 1 oz. Diane's Peanut Sauce (Very Spicy, contains peanuts & shellfish) $0.75 1 Crispy Sambal Chicken Rice Bowl (Spicy, GF, contains soy) $16.00 The dumplings were good. They were flavorful. The bowl was really good though as far as the toppings but I do feel it was filled w/ mostly rice. My mom really liked the slaw they put on the side. Diane's peanut sauce was good & had a light kick. I love pink so naturally I loved the overall aesthetic. I will say we did see one of the staff cleaning the tables in a very unsanitary way. It was busy so I'm glad they come around to clean often but they used 1 rag and would spray the table then wipe the chairs with the same rag. Then do the same at every other table with the same dirty rag. So basically the tables are not clean, which I get that's a risk eating out anywhere.

Food: 4 Service: No table service, counter only Ambiance: 5.0 Value: 2.5 I wanted to show you my specific ratings for Saturday Dumpling, since I have mixed feelings about it. The place is cute and very trendy looking. If you are looking for a hip, happening place, Saturday Dumpling fits the bill. Self-order kiosk, check; Limited menu board; check, trendy vibe; check; environmental, check. I know that Saturday Dumpling has had rave reviews for their dumplings and I have no complaints about the food. I enjoyed the dumplings. My wife's order of pork and cabbage was very good and I had the "collaboration with Diane's Place" special with Hmong Sausage. It comes with your choice of dipping sauce and we both got the ginger scallion sauce. The dumplings (six per order) come with a pickled coleslaw and pickles, which was very tasty. Limited Variety: At the restaurant, the dumpling varieties are very limited. In fact, there are only four options, one of which is a rotating special. For frozen (take home or buy in a store), it looks like there are six options. Value Despite a very positive review above, I will not return to Saturday dumpling because I consider it a very bad value. Keep in mind, that the dumpling prices are about twice as much as their frozen dumplings. If you have only purchased the frozen ones and had them at home, it might seem like a good value to you. At the restaurant, we ordered two dumpling platters of six each. The only other thing we ordered was two cans of pop. Keep in mind, although they don't have tipping, they also have zero service (you order at the counter, pick up the food yourself, and bus your own table), so this should not be touted as a discount. For the two order of dumplings plus two cans of pop, we paid exactly $42.00 for lunch. I think $22 a person for lunch for this kind and quantity of food at a self-serve restaurant is really excessive and represents a very poor value proposition. Also, in my opinion, you should at least be able to order at the counter and interact with a human being. However, at Saturday Dumpling, the only way to order and pay is at a kiosk. I try to put more emphasis on food in my restaurant reviews, but I also want to talk about value because (in my opinion), they both have to be rated highly for me to want to return to the restaurant.

Visited 2/8/25. Saturday dumpling ready to sell you some flavorful and delicious dumplings in northeast! Located in the former glamdoll location, you should give yourself a bit of time beforehand to park (at the end one of my friends informed me they had a lot off of the restaurant but I had no idea so I just did street parking). When you enter you will pay in a kiosk which is super efficient but does lack a tiny bit of the charm of being able to ask people working about what they recommend-works okay for a lunch spot though and does make it more efficient. My two friends and I got the Hmong sausage special dumplings which were a collaboration between the wonderful Diane Moua (from Diane's place) and Saturday Dumpling co. They did ring in at about $17-18 or so for the six dumplings so definitely on the pricier side but they were delicious in the end. I also got the crispy sambal chicken scallion pancake burrito and one of my other friends got the veggie rice bowl. Overall we were all impressed with the flavors, especially in relation to the dumplings. I regret not getting extra sauce for my burrito so a note that I would add it on if ordering this. Overall, a lovely lunch and it was a fun stop. I feel like the thing that would keep me ordering or coming back are the unique monthly dumpling specials, otherwise if I lived in northeast I would add it into my lunch rotation.

This new hot and new restaurant just opened up in Minneapolis! The interior is very cute! Everything is pink, bright and gives good vibes. I would recommend going on a weekday because the weekends get super busy but I was still able to find a seat pretty fast. Keep in mind that it is only street parking. Even though it was busy, the food was served quickly. I got the "dumpling of the moment." This signature dish is a fusion of their dumpling-style dishes as well as collaborations from different restaurants. They were able to collab with Diane's Place from NE Minneapolis. I would say it was juicy, meaty and had lots of flavor! Every bite was delicious. But the cumin fries.... Omg those were my fav. Something about the seasoning and crispness are just too good. It came with a garlic aioli sauce and paired great together! I would say it's pretty pricey for how much you are getting but if you've been thinking about trying Saturday Dumpling, it's worth giving it a try!

Went to try this restaurant on a Sunday, imagine the invitation saying meet me at Saturday dumpling company on Sunday for dinner. Street parking with meters in front. This store ambiance was so pink and chic! Self order kiosk and grab a number so the servers can find you. We tried the monthly special dumpling which is shrimp and pork, pork and cabbage, and chicken and mushroom. All were tasty. The chilli alioli and ginger scallion were a great sauce, otherwise the plain soy sauce, chilli oil, and dumpling vinegar is available too. I wanted to try the scallion pancake as an appetizer but they only have that for the burrito. The cumin fries were delicious. The black sesame golden cloud bites were surprisingly heavy, real dense. Reminds me of Chinese donuts at the buffet.

Cute place in NE that has all the dumplings your heart desires. Lots of options even if dumplings aren't your thing. Self-service take your time, order what you want then your food is brought to you. They have take and make at home options as well. Parking is paid on the street and a little scarce given the area. I went on a Sunday afternoon and it was packed! Good food quick service

5/5 stars! Worth the hype! We ordered the red curry chicken dumplings and pork burrito. I could eat all of it every day. The flavor was incredible! I can't wait to try more items on their menu. We went midday on a Saturday and it was very busy. Thankfully we ordered ahead - highly recommend doing that!

Tried the special Hmong sausage dumplings (collab with Diane Moua) paired with the spicy peanut sauce. It was really delicious. The dumplings were a but pricey but worth it based on the quality. Also tried the pork and cabbage dumplings with chili oil. The chili oil tasted like it had curry seasoning in it, which I'm not used to (I prefer the more traditional chili oil). Delicious but the Hmong sausage dumplings were better in my opinion. Most drinks were canned. There is free complementary water. I would like to see some hot tea being offered as a beverage. I also got the dessert dumplings with the sweet condensed milk. This was my least favorite dish. It tasted like pretzels with sesame seeds and sugar.

I've been wanting to try these dumplings for AGES! But just haven't been able to catch them on a Saturday while I was in MN. Problem solved! They have a full time location (yes it is open all week, not just Saturdays!) I walked in and ordered pork and chicken dumplings to go on a Saturday morning. The dining room was full and cozy, a nice spot to wait. My food was up quickly and traveled well in my way back to the suburbs. I actually preferred the pork to chicken. Service was friendly, I will definitely be back!

It was opening day for Minneapolis popup favorite Saturday Dumpling Co and I thought it went super well. IMPORTANT: apple maps currently routes to the wrong location, check google maps and the address of this review for the correct address Dumplings were absolutely delicious, a bit pricey at $15 for 6 dumplings but I added on rice for $4 and thought it was good portion wise. I will say I was disappointed with the rice it was kind of like basmati rice when I was expecting like a jasmine. For the price & rice situation I have to give 4/5 stars but the la chang dumplings were enough to ensure I'll definitely be back. Also I picked up the frozen dumplings for some at home fun. They were really on top of it when helping with that and making sure I got exactly what I ordered before I left. The restaurant is a great vibe, awesome pink interior with a good amount of space. You come in order at the kiosk and grab a number. If you're with people you can all be on the same number.

3.5/5 Stopped here with our friends on a Saturday (!) and was pleased and a little sad at how quick it was (not much time to chat with friends and they were busy so we couldn't hang out at our table for a super long time). The line was long when we first entered but they had two kiosks for ordering and that went quickly and food came fast so things really run along, great for a quick bite and that's it. Since my partner and I are mostly vegan we could only try the vegetable dumplings and the silk road burrito (they were out of the bowl option), we shared and it was def not enough food for two adults - our bad! But it was pricey honestly for 6 dumplings and a burrito (~$15 each basically + a side of sauce for the burrito which was fifty cents) so I didn't want to add to the cost by getting fries- our friends got them and they looked good, they were also in our burrito. Unless I ordered wrong our sauces came out incorrect but they swapped them out easily. The yuzu miso vinaigrette looks creamy so it was off putting, it also was quite tasteless. The burrito was tasty but def needed the side of sauce we ordered, pretty bland even for my palate. The dumplings themselves were just OK, we've had better frozen ones. They're in the old Glam Doll Donut spot and kept some pink around which I like. I'm curious if they'll do more on their menu as there's nothing special calling me back here.

Cute space and yummy place to grab a bite. You order on a walk up screen, grab your own water and bus your table when you leave. The food came out fast, was fresh, hot and tasty. We tried a burrito and the pork dumplings with the OG and garlic chili sauces. They were marked as spicy, good flavor but I didn't think they were spicy. We'll be back.

Yelp
Cute space and lots of pink! Friendly staff and our food came out pretty quick. My partner & I met a friend here for lunch and we got the pork dumplings, chicken dumplings, dumpling of day, and the chicken burrito. The burrito was pretty good & flavorful. Now the dumplings, my highlight was the dumpling of the day - it was sweet pork with onions and other things, and it was so flavorful and juicy! The chicken and pork dumplings were also pretty good, but a bit more toned down - both still pretty juicy and a bit more milder in the different spices. Overall, great experience and I can't wait to come back to try more on the menu.

We were excited to try Saturday Dumpling Co at their new brick and mortar location last Sunday! It was their second official day open, and I couldn't have been more impressed. Ordering is done at a kiosk, but it was easy and they had a very friendly host answering questions and helping. My husband and I shared the Le Chang and Chicken and Mushroom dumplings. They came out quickly and were delicious. We ended up buying a few packs to take home. The space itself is very bright and welcoming. We'll definitely be back and I highly recommend!

Yelp
Super cute place! Love the pink decor. Service was good but limited interaction because you order on your own. They were packed when I went with no open seating so we took our food to go. We got the pork dumplings and featured dumpling. Very good, fresh and filling. Sauces were good as well. We also tried the fries and they had good crisp and seasoning. We will be back to try more.

I've been waiting to eat at Saturday Dumpling Co. for weeks! I can safely say, it was well worth the wait. The atmosphere, the aromas, the quality of the food.... All top tier! I love how easy it is to order (walk up to the kiosk, order, take a number). The menu is simple and to the point, but they have specials to spice things up! We ordered the special dumplings, red curry, and snagged an order of the pork & cabbage dumplings. DELICIOUS! They have a variety of sauces to choose from; huge ginger scallion and garlic chili sauce are definite go-to's. We also got an order of cumin fries, the pork bowl, and chicken bowl. Be prepared to have leftovers because they give a hefty portion! The space is kind of small and fills up quickly, so be prepared to order takeout or try to snag a table if one opens up. I can't wait to go back!

First time at Saturday Dumpling- very cute spot with lots of pink. I ordered the scallion chips, pork and cabbage dumplings with OG dumpling sauce, and black sesame cloud bites. The scallion chips were very crispy but the creamy szechuan dip was super thick and just tasted like cream cheese. The dumplings were really good and had a nice crispy outside- the OG sauce was the spicy at all even though there was a pepper icon next to it. And the golden cloud bites were SO fluffy and delicious! Will definitely be back to try other dumpling flavors!

Not gonna lie, the name threw me off. I thought this place only opens on Saturdays. Silly me! So we came here on Sunday (not to make a statement here) at 11 am right just about the time they opened. There was a line ahead of us and sure enough it didn't take long for the line to get longer behind us. We placed the order using a touch screen kiosk, found our table and before long somebody brought us the food. Super fast, and the food is delicious. We have pork dumplings and crispy sambal chicken scallion pancake burrito. Yummy! Will come again to try their rice bowl.

Such a cute new space in Northeast!! The ordering process is on a tablet and really smooth and easy. The food is creative (Scallion Pancake Burritos!!!), comforting, and delicious. I can't wait to go back and try more!!

Yelp
Very yummy dumplings and a surprise bonus of a great rice bowl. The wrappers I found to be on the thick vs delicate side. I generally prefer the latter but the filling was generous (and yummy) which likely requires a thicker wrapper. Counter kiosk ordering but super easy and simple, friendly staff and a fun decor. We'll be back I'm sure.

Yelp
Overpriced and underwhelming dining experience. Pros: - Service is self-order from a kiosk and we started receiving our food within a minute of sitting down. - Appetizer: we ordered the cumin fries and they were the best part of our meal. They were crispy and seasoned well. Cons: - Food was okay. They were sold out of the curry dumplings when we went, which are the ones I was excited to try out. We had also ordered the braised beef bowl, which was just ok, a little plain. - Price: $14 for 6 dumplings and $16 for the bowl. - BYOB... Drinks were overpriced: 12 oz sprite for $4.50 - Not a good place if you want to catch up with friends, it's better for if you want a quick snack and get on with your day.

Stopped in with a group of friends on a Thursday night around 6pm. Even from the outside this restaurant is so cute and trendy. If eating in a bubble gum pink colored restaurant isn't your style, you're missing out. The entire place was packed, we snagged a small table for two and added in an extra chair. Order is towards the front when you walk in, there's about 3 screens where you place your own order. There weren't staff at the front to answer questions but I loved seeing the photos of each item. Once you order you'll take a number and then find a seat to wait at until they bring your order to you. I found the pricing to be painful! $14-16.50 for 6 dumplings, yikes. I opted for the pork burrito, and at $16 it's the somewhat obvious choice for bang-for-your-buck. The burrito was awesome, instead of a tortilla it's wrapped in a scallion pancake! Flavors from the slaw, pickles and sauce were like a mini vacation for my mouth! I paired it with a mocktail which are around $8, a little pricey but there are some $4 drink options. I had been eying the cumin fries $8 didn't seem like a big deal until I saw the small portion and was glad I didn't cave. With that being said I ate half my burrito, and had I also gotten fried it could have been a meal for two. I did try the black sesame golden cloud bites ($9) and found them to be the opposite of a cloud- not light or fluffy. I would explain them more like a pretzel bite, thick and chewy. The table agreed that we would not order them again. My friends both ordered an order of dumplings, while they were really good they would opt for the burrito or rice bowl next time on cost alone. They both stopped and grabbed Lu's on the way home as they weren't full. Honestly this place is trendy and it's a pretty cool spot but I have concerns if it'll last long term with the pricing of their main seller. I'll 100% return, but I'll be sticking to the burritos and rice bowls. If you haven't checked it out and are looking for a cool hangout space check it out.

*Takeout Review* Feeling a GNO (girls Night out) but wanting some cocktails to match so grabbed some Saturday Dumpling Co and enjoyed it at a local brewery. We ordered the dumpling of the moment which was a curry dumpling as well as the Chicken and mushroom dumpling. We also ordered the black sesame cloud bites and the Silk Road Veggie special Scallion Pancake burrito (say that 5x fast). The flavors were so balanced, and I enjoyed the pickles and slaw on the side of the dumplings. Because it was takeout, we were able to grab a few sauce options and went with the garlic chili aioli, ginger scallion, and OG dumpling sauce. The ginger scallion paired incredibly well with the veggie pancake burrito (which is large enough to share!) that had a mix of tofu, slaw and caramelized eggplant rolled into this thin scallion pancake. The dumplings were made for dipping- they scored delicious on the tasty scale, and I loved how packed each dumpling was- the ingredients could be enjoyed in every bite. The only thing we ordered that we would skip next time is the black sesame cloud bites. When we got to ours, we knew they would be cold, but they were also incredibly dense and needed to bathe in the sweetened condensed milk sauce it came with. Overall- great order to pick up time (under 20 minutes), clean building that was fun and preppy with the pink. So happy I don't have to only wait for a dumpling drop anymore and now I can order takeout, dine in or take-home frozen options!

We were in the city checking out the holiday markets when we remembered that Saturday Dumpling Co. was opening a brick and mortar restaurant and it just happened to be day 2 for them! We parked right out front on the street and were greeted by incredibly friendly staff upon entering. They have two self order kiosks, but they also had a staff member behind the counter to answer any questions and provide us with their thoughts on the right combination of sauces and dumplings. We had previously only had the frozen, bring home and cook version, which are excellent and still available to order at the restaurant! We opted for the chicken and mushroom as well as the special they had. Both were heartily filled dumplings with an excellent sear to the bottom of the outside. The restaurant is open and lively, clean and inviting. The restrooms were also quite clean and if the overhead light is dimmed properly, all of the back lighting in the mirrors and ceiling give off a really cool calming vibe. I would absolutely recommend and will return as often as I am in NE Minneapolis!

We decided to visit based on the reviews we read, but maybe it's just not for us. When we walked in, we got in line to order at the kiosk. The menu was simple--just four dumpling options, a choice of sauce, and three meat burrito or rice bowl choices. We tried the chicken dumplings, which were big and packed with flavor, but not the kind we particularly enjoyed. Despite their popularity with others, we just didn't find them to our taste. We also ordered two bowls, but the sides and garnishes were the same for all of them--everything felt pretty basic. When ordering, you pick the sauce for the dumplings, but it only comes with one option per order. Honestly, it would've been nice to have a sauce station where customers could try different flavors without having to pay extra. The bowls were pretty underwhelming--just meat, cabbage, and pickled sides, with no additional sauce aside from the seasoning already on the meat. The self-serve setup was a bit of a hassle, from ordering to grabbing utensils, water, and clearing our own dishes. The place itself was clean, cute, and the staff was friendly, but overall, it wasn't a meal we really enjoyed, even though it seems to work for others.

Delicious dumplings and nice atmosphere. Ordered a variety of dumplings and tried all the dipping sauces...no losers! Food was ready quickly and free parking was available in the garage attached to the building.

I saw a tiktok about this place this morning and decided to have dinner here with my family tonight. We all loved it! I tried the veggie dumplings and my family tried the pork bowls, chicken bowls, and chicken dumplings. We also loved the OG sauce (it has a spicy sign but it's not really spicy, imo). They have convenient digital order kiosks which made the ordering process quick despite being busy on a sunday night. The staff were friendly and greeted us as we came in/left. The atmosphere and decor were super cute (love all the pink!) and there were lots of seating options. So happy to see this new addition to the area and can't wait to come back!

We walked in right when they opened with a few other people. Food came out quickly and it was so delicious! The dipping sauces were so good and I can't wait to go back.

Service was awesome! The dumplings were good! My roommate and I got the pork and cabbage, and my brother got the La Chang! The fries for 5/5 good, the sauces were 4/5. The price was about 3/5. Somewhat pricey for 6 dumplings, but will come again for sure. Fav sauce was the garlic chili aoili. The other ones were a little spicy for me.

Lucas Y.

Yelp
The food was super tasty and high quality. The rice bowl with pork was a good size but the chicken dumplings were somewhat small for the price. If ordering just the dumplings, I would have needed a side of white rice or something else. This place is brand new, clean and it has a good atmosphere. Ordering at the digital kiosk was easy and then the food is brought to your table.
